Frozen Rhubarb
We now have Rhubarb available in 5 lb. bags. It is washed and cut into 1-inch long pieces then placed into a bag and frozen. One bag will make 4 rhubarb pies. The price of the rhubarb is $6.00 a lb. or $30.00 per bag. We can ship it anywhere in the United States.
Even though rhubarb is considered a vegetable, it is most often treated as a fruit. Rhubarb provides a good source of vitamin C, fiber, and calcium. It is usually eaten cooked, and just like fresh cranberries, rhubarb is almost unbearably tart on its own. It needs the added sweetness of sugar, honey, or fruit juice to balance out the acidity. Since rhubarb is primarily used for pie, it is also referred to by it's nickname the "pie plant".
